2024-11-17 We Are the Mandala 24:06
Ayya Medhanandi
Pure present moment awareness reveals what we are not; and thereby, what we truly are. Investigate and question all thoughts you see circling in the mind – fearful or fanciful, liked or not. Know their clever disguises: impermanence everywhere! Not what we are, but empty, ephemeral in nature, they orbit like space debris – crowding the heart mandala of consciousness. Let go and rejoice when states of wanting, judgement, restlessness, fear, unhappiness and all the many faces of 'self' dissolve in the silence of pure awareness. This is true refuge – here and now. All else withers in the furnace of eternity.

Jeanne Corrigal
This dharma talk summarizes 3 sources of joy and emphasizes the 3rd source - the more unworldly than unworldly joy of non-clinging, liberation, awakening. Not only is joy a fruit of the practice, but also has a pivotal role in liberation, freedom in the mind and heart. This role is illuminated through exploring several maps to liberation.
